Mechanically, yes, but if you upgrade to a LS2, don't they have the knock and cam sensors in different places? You'll have to do a little bit of wiring alteration. PCM can be reused, but will need to be reflashed.

He never stated that he was going to use a ls2 and only really asked about his headers, I just was trying to help a guy out in a thread that no one responded to. I think all guys new to the board or old that have a question are important and if I can help I would love to..... No question is a dumb question.
